Morning Report – Wednesday 23rd March

FTSE to open at 6,667 (-32 pts)

Asian stocks hit two-month lows overnight as the US dollar strengthen to four-month highs following European COVID-19 lockdowns and the posiibility of U.S. tax hikes – denting risk appetite.

The Hang Seng has broken below a key level of support today and this marks a medium-term top of Asian equities – setting us up for a weak start to European trading.

S&P 500-0.76%Bearish for UK stocks
Hang Seng+2.04%Bearish for UK stocks
Gold+0.03%Neutral for UK stocks
AUD/JPY-0.37%Bearish for UK stocks
US 10yr Yield-1.07%Bullish for UK stocks
Regency Risk Barometer Snapshot

The FTSE failed to muster another fightback and closed below the 6,705 support level that we’ve highlighted over the last week.

A move down towards the ascending trendline just above 6,600 now looks the most likely scenario.
